I'm still enjoying making some pixel art portraits, this one is of my wyvern in her mouse form, Yarrow!

A 128 by 128 pixel art depicting Yarrow as a mouse. She has a little smirk, and wears a golden collar with a broken chain.

I’ve been working on a few portraits in Pixquare, I wanted to make some custom stuff for my playthroughs in Legend of Grimrock 2 on a whim! Here’s a lizard(kobold?) that came to mind last night,

A kobold(lizard?) portrait made on a 128x128 canvas in Pixquare on my ipad! She is lavender colored, with blue eyes and off white horns.

Have another sneak peak of a panel from the same page of the comic I’m making, as a treat! I really loved painting the clouds off on the horizon in this one, looks like a storm’s growing somewhere!

#art
A wyvern continues to fly onward, with a green landscape below and white fluffy clouds ahead in a bright blue sky. She says incredulously to her rider, “And… Who said you could join me?!”

Here’s a lil wip of a comic I’m working on! I really love coloring bright blue skies, heck!

I’ve been busy working at my local Renaissance festival as a cashier, oh gosh it’s fun and a bit stressful. Thankfully this is the final weekend of the year!

#art
A wip sketch of a wyvern soaring through the bright blue sky with a fox(?) rider on her back asking, “So, WHERE did you want to fly us to, exactly?”

here’s a second piece I was working on and have held onto for the past few weeks! Both this and my previously shared art are inspired by a game called Noctis IV, an old space exploration game that was around before no man’s sky was a thing!

#art
A wyvern slumbers on a world with two pyramidal structures, one with a pod helpfully sitting atop the more distant ruin. Two kangaroo like creatures stay a safe distance from Yarrow as she sleeps, and a flock of birds flies through the partly cloudy sky as a green sun sets on the horizon.

hiya, I'm still doing okay! Work at the ren faire has been going really well so far, and I'll try to find time to catch up on the rattober art, even if that means posting stuff in November!

I wanted to make some more art of my wyvern, since being a mouse all the time gets a little confining!

#art
Yarrow as her wyvern form looks up at the gas giant in the night sky on a world with spiky ridge mountains surrounding a large lake. In the distance, a lander pod helpfully rests on one of the mountains connected by a tether up to a box shaped starship.

I fell behind a bit on rattober, but I wanted to share something in the meantime while I work on catching up!

my shop has an amazing sword available for the ren faire, oh my gosh

#art
A small mouse yarrow balances herself atop a pommel, shouting, "See!! Perfectly balanced!" Her flower and somehow her speech is a bright pink.

Day 3 is lake rat!

I had a lot of fun making something more spooky than usual, and it was nice making a new piece with background art! I'm gonna be working the weekend though, so I'll do my best to make art daily

this was also inspired by a pathfinder game I'm in!

#rattober2025 #rattober #art
A wizard rat looks up at a looming thing rising up from the lake beyond the pier. The text, "Day 3! Lake Rat" is visible

Day 2 for Rattober, I had a lot of fun coloring this with the new brushes in Procreate! I gotta think of a name for the rat archer, too, I like her a lot

#art #rattober2025 #rattober
An unnamed rat gal lets an arrow loose in the early morning and strikes a bull's eye on a target off in the distance. The words "Rattober Day 2", "Accu-Rat!", and "Hehe!" are visible on the work

day 1 for rattober, this is the first thing that came to my mind when thinking about a friend shaped rat!

I'll do as many of these as I can, it's been fun!

#rattober #rattober2025 #art
mouse Yarrow wearing a magic hat and oversized glasses imagines the most friend shaped rat she can think of, with the text, "Most friend shaped Rat...?" *Poof!* and *Ta-da!* (all rats are friend shaped!!) visible

Thought I might share another doodle I worked on at work over the weekend, I really enjoy making landscapes!

I worked on some expression practice of my mouse and wyvern sona, I had some fun with things!

#art
Four images of yarrow as a mouse are visible, each with a different expression; a stern look, a surprised expression, appearing to be upset thinking something over, and a happy expression. At the bottom, yarrow as her wyvern self says, "I'm not sure what to put down here, so I'll just write this. Perfect."

I wanted to share something I drew on my phone with pocket procreate, using a lil stylus and my fingers.

I recently switched from pills to injections for my HRT, and felt like drawing what it was like overcoming a fear of needles I’ve had since I was a lil kid, it’s scary but getting easier!

#art
Yarrow holds a syringe close to her belly, giving herself an injection. The words “First E Shot” are visible on the left side.

I realized I hadn't shared this art I had made for a friend of mine for a swords & wizardry game! This a ref for his fox ranger named Dizo!

It is important to learn to trust one's own sense of Intuition at times

I felt like sharing a new idea, making little doodles that help show the story of the worlds I'd like to tell stories about, it feels fun!

Yarrow looks up at a hallway path appearing a bit lost. She holds a brush staff, dripping with the endless potential of Life. Three elemental gems are visible on a cloak the mouse wears, pink, yellow and blue.

hiya, it was my birthday yesterday! I got a lot of nice birthday wishes, and I had a very nice one for my 36th, I feel!

I decided to make and share this piece, hoping to convey the feeling of self healing I have worked on for quite some time, and a peek at the setting I want to share one day.

#art
The dreamweaver meets with her shadow self, learning to accept that part of herself long hidden away in seas of void. In the background, a lone forgotten world remains frozen in stasis. Closer, a lunar city station stands high above the horizon, tethered to the surface by a single space elevator.

here's a really rough wip fan art I'm making for Mina the Hollower!

I got super inspired after the demo released, though heck it was tough for me in some spots (moving platforms that are on fire are SCARY, heck!)

hiya, I wanted to give an update; I made it safely to where I was traveling!

I also really wanted to share this pretty sky with y’all that I got to see on my drive. I got soaked, it rained so heavily on me when I was getting stuff out of my car, but it felt great after eight hours on the road!
A photo of a thunder storm in the late evening, the clouds are a very bright golden color with a darker blue of the sky just visible underneath.

I’m traveling between states right now but I wanted to share something i drew around 1/1/25

I don’t want to post things that could make someone sad, and i remember feeling upset when I drew this

I will be okay, i’m just mourning the loss of someone very important to me at the moment

#art
A pencil drawing of a sad and worried looking yarrow looking to the side while hugging a leg with her tail.

Heck, since I just learned about a warning on how showing steam purchases could potentially be used against me, here's a drawing with boxart from the first games I got instead!

Steam has changed so much, and YEAH why is Epic's store front SO HECKING BAD??
A mouse looking up at box art of Terraria, Morrowind, Bastion, Total War Shogun 2, and Half-Life 2 says; "There's several games I bought a decade ago that I have not played to the end..."
